Bedeque: A Place in the Sun
Collection Search
Description
There are a bewildering number of
Bedeques — Centreville Bedeque,
Central Bedeque, Lower Bedeque,
North Bedeque — but there is only one
Bedeque Bay. When human activity
began in the Bedeque area it was the
Bay, and the mouth of the Dunk River
flowing into it, which was the focus of
movement and settlement rather than
the sunny farmlands and clumps of
buildings that today suggest a multitude
of Bedeques spread in haphazard
sprawl across the red soil of southeastern
Prince County.
